Making History: Pukapukan and Anthropological Constructions of Knowledge
Robert Borofsky
In 1976, inhabitants of Pakapuka, an island in the South Pacific, revived a traditional form of social organization that several Pakapukan's claimed to have experienced from their youth, but that anthropologists had not recorded. Had the Pakapukans invented it or had the anthropologists failed to record it? Professor Borofsky compares two different ways of 'making history'.
